"The King Eternal Monarch" lead star Lee Min Ho participated in another charitable work by donating to specific organizations. On Dec. 28, the actor and MYM Entertainment donated 50 Million Won ($46,000) via the donation platform PROMIZ to Holt Children's Services Inc., Good Neighbors International, and Save the Children. These organizations focus on protecting vulnerable children in society.
We're sure everyone, especially the actor's fans, is well aware that the actor has long been concerned with children's welfare and has continuously participated in awareness campaigns to promote the cause. He also frequently gives individual donations for it. Recently, Lee Min Ho became encouraged to help abused children because the rate of child abuse at the hands of family members has increased since the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has confined more people.
The actor's donations will be used in supporting programs that intend to enhance family relationships and implement psychological counseling to unfortunate children who are victims of abuse. This aims to help victims with the emotional aftereffects of the abuse, and also prevent it from happening again.
In case you don't know, this is not the first time that Lee Min Ho has given to charitable causes during this challenging time. He also previously donated 300 Million Won ($276,000) to help aid the efforts of preventing the spread of COVID-19, which includes supplying PPE's (Personal Protection Equipments) to front liners, health care workers, and children who are prone to be infected due to their low immune systems.
Meanwhile, the donation platform PROMIZ shared that Lee Min Ho decided to donate as a way to protect children suffering from abuse inflicted by their family members. As more families are able to spend more time at home because of the government's lockdown due to the COVID19 pandemic, the rate of child abuse also unexpectedly risen. The actor hopes that his donation will help raise awareness for the child abuse victims who are sadly suffering in the dark. He also hopes that it will provide practical assistance to vulnerable children.
This year (2020), Lee Min Ho and MYM Entertainment were given official recognition as a business that has made significant social contributions to local communities due to their consistent donations and awareness campaigns through PROMIZ. This goes to show that Lee Min Ho is not only a handsome but is also a kind-hearted and generous person!
